Barabbas

Hold it!

Stop!

No.

Get out of the way.

Get out.

Move.

It is the tradition at Passover

to set free a prisoner, one chosen by the people.

You, the people of Jerusalem, will decide.

Which of these two condemned men do you wish to see set free,

Jesus of Nazareth or Barabbas?

Barabbas.

Barabbas.

Barabbas. Barabbas.

Barabbas.

Barabbas.

Barabbas.

Barabbas.

Barabbas.

No.

No!

Sorry, there's no more wine.

I'm sorry.

There's no more wine.

Woman, my time has not yet come.

Come.

Do whatever he tells you.

Fill them with water.

Water.

What are you doing?

I'll give you half.

You can say Barabbas took it all.

I don't betray my master.

Put it back.

Don't kill me.

Don't kill me.

Grapes, grapes, fresh grapes off the vine.

No, I don't think so.

Well, try these then.

Freshest ones here.

We've been here a week.

I hope not.

Tamar.

Tamar!

I dropped my cup.

People don't come here to drink.

Take one of my girls.

Take as many as you like.

How about you kick everybody out?

I wanna be alone.

Choose any girl you wish.

I wanna be alone.

Everybody out.

Out. Move.

Get out.

I wanna be alone.

Out. Out.

Get out.

Move.

Everybody out.

You don't even know what that is.

Get out. Get out.

She doesn't understand about me.

What are you doing?

This is a brothel.

You're not even doing anything.

Get out. Out.

I wanna be alone.

You are alone, Barabbas.

Alone.

Alone.

Take Sila, you've always liked her.

No, I want the nameless one.

What nameless one?

The one who's frightened of me.

Frightened of you?

Everyone who knows you is--

Frightened of me?

Her, she trembles every time she sees you.

She does-- I want the nameless one.

I am the nameless one.

Why the nameless one?

Because he asked me my name, and I didn't give it.

But she's only a servant.

She doesn't know how to do what you want.

She's less than worthless.

Get out.

What's your name?

Esther.

Pretty.

That's your share.

It's a pittance.

So, next time choose a better house to rob.

Barabbas, so he's alive.

They said he was killed in Damascus.

Or in a fight in Sidon or hung by the neck in Tiro.

You can't believe the rumors.

Barabbas always comes back.

Wherever there's a dead body, that where I'll find

you two scavengers.

Welcome back, Barabbas.

Zealots.

So busy looking for the messiah,

they found death instead.

Everyone in Judea is waiting for a messiah.

They'll have to crucify the whole land.

It might happen sooner or later.

Under this Roman governor, zealots are the enemies

of Rome with all this talk of rebellion

and a messiah that's coming to liberate them

with a sword of fire.

Well, these two won't be doing anymore talking,

and that's what talking gets you.

We should just kick the Romans out.

Careful what you say.

Pilate's spies are everywhere.

The Romans control the roads, control the caravans,

control the city, everything there is,

the taxes and the gold, seize the harvests,

and they're making it difficult to steal.

Either you work for the Romans

and break your back for a pittance,

or you end up like them.

What do you two want out of life?

Wine, money and whores.

Same as him, but more whores.

[ laughs I

Well, you follow me, you'll have everything you need.

You follow me, I'll make you rich.

Oh, wine, money and whores and whores and whores and whores...

Are you the caravan master?

I am the oldest.

We come from Sunem in Galilee.

Well, if you are the master, then the lives

of these people depend on you.

We are all children of the same Father.

You know, I never had the chance to meet him.

But the Lord is with us always,

and we are under His protection.

I don't think so.

He would not had you meet me, Barabbas.

Barabbas, we are traveling to Jerusalem to offer sacrifices

in the temple.

You know, I never understood these sacrifices.

It is the duty of every child of this land.

How do you make a sacrifice?

One offers the victims to the Lord in order

to obtain his benevolence.

So, you buy animals and sheep and doves,

and you kill them?

And you waste your money on this nonsense?

It is tradition.

Well, we're gonna have a change of plans.

Old man, today, you give your money to me.

But the money for sacrifices is sacred.

Oh, I assure you, the money will be just as sacred with me.

We are all children of God.

Please, leave us in peace.

Drop your knives or sacrifices will be made

right here and now.

You reap what you sow.

Where is the money?

No.

Kill the woman.

Stop.

Stop it. Stop.

It's all here.

[ laughs I

You're very generous.

Choose any girl you wish, even two, three,

as many as you like.

You may have her all night if you wish.

Well, she's mine...

forever.

[ laughs I

A serving girl.

Aren't you afraid of me?

Would it make any difference?

Well, yes.

You are afraid of me.

Everyone is afraid of Barabbas, everyone.

[gasps 1

Why not?

It's a sin.

Yeah. That's why I like it.

It would be against God's will.

God?

Now I've lost all desire.

I don't want you or your god.

I want a drink.

Go to sleep.

As I told you, follow me and I will make you fishers of men.
